How to Play the Currency Quiz

  1. Pick a level. Easy asks which famous country uses a currency, Difficult asks the currency of a country, So Difficult mixes both with the rarest currencies, and Hell asks for every country that shares one.
  2. Choose one of the four answers. In Hell, tap every country that uses the currency, then press Check.
  3. The right answer lights up after each question, so a miss still teaches you something.
  4. After 10 questions you get your score; signed in, it counts on the leaderboard.

What Makes It Different

  • Checked data: every currency matches Wikipedia's list of circulating currencies, including the recent changes (Bulgaria's euro in 2026, Zimbabwe Gold in 2024).
  • No trick questions: where a second currency is also legal tender (the rand in Lesotho, the US dollar in Panama), it never appears as a wrong answer.
  • A round on shared currencies, the euro, the US dollar and the CFA franc, that most currency quizzes skip.

Money is geography you can hold. Every currency tells a story: the euro of European integration, the CFA franc of France's former colonies in Africa, the US dollar adopted by countries from Ecuador to Timor-Leste. This quiz asks which country uses a currency, what a country pays with, and which countries share one.

Currencies Shared by Many Countries

The euro is used by 21 EU members since Bulgaria joined on 1 January 2026, by four small states with an agreement, and by Montenegro and Kosovo without one.

The CFA franc is two currencies: the West African CFA franc in eight countries (Benin, Burkina Faso, Cรดte d'Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo) and the Central African CFA franc in six (Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon). Both are pegged to the euro.

The US dollar is the only currency of Ecuador, El Salvador, Timor-Leste, Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and Palau, as well as the United States, and is legal tender beside the local currency in Panama and Liberia. The East Caribbean dollar is shared by six island nations, and the Australian dollar by Australia, Kiribati, Nauru and Tuvalu.

The Newest Currencies

Currencies change more often than you might think. Croatia swapped the kuna for the euro in 2023 and Bulgaria the lev in 2026. Zimbabwe launched the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) in 2024, Sierra Leone took three zeros off the leone in 2022, and Cuba abolished its convertible peso in 2021. This quiz uses the currencies in circulation when it was last checked.
